Drop Dead Brilliant: Dazzle in the Workplace with Confidence and Panache! Paperback

“Essential reading for everyone interested in improving their personal brand.”-Peter Wade, GE Consumer Finance

Whether you're a receptionist, a CEO, or somewhere in-between-you project an image that could potentially make or break a deal. That's why Lesley Everett, the United Kingdom's leading professional branding expert, created the “Walking TALL” method.

It's a cheeky, upbeat, and the inimitably British approach to creating a unique personal brand. Everett delivers “drop-dead brilliant” advice on first impressions, appearances, body indicators, and everything else needed to present yourself with panache.

I wish I'd known about this book a while ago, The advice is spot-on, succinct, and easy to apply. It's obvious that the author knows her stuff, and is able to deliver advice in a way that I, for one, have found very helpful.

I read a review of the book in the USA and later heard the author interviewed on the radio in the UK. I then spotted it in a bookshop and found that it was exactly as advertised. Everyone needs this type of advice, whatever career they follow.

It's a pity that a few more of our public figures don't have someone like Lesley Everett in their corner. I think this book should be required reading for all executives - come to think of it, for anyone in business.

I often wondered why some people make it and others don't - many of the secrets are in this book.
